Update or Else!
While playing a video I had just purchased off of the iTunes Music Store, iTunes had apparently decided that it was so important to notify me of a new update that it launched the notification and then iTunes just crashed. It’s nice to know that Apple not only copies the good features but also the problems with unreliability.

I Pulled a Palin
Microsoft Office 2007 has the ability to have its spelling dictionary updated, when Microsoft finds people using a word over and over again that’s not in the dictionary. Apparently Microsoft is forecasting McCain Palin not to win, since it doesn’t find Palin’s name important enough to add to the dictionary.
See Obama is spelled right…

King of the Hill gets cancelled along with another Texas Bumpkin
First off, I have to ask does anyone else find it ironic that of all the times to cancel the Fox show “King of the Hill” it happens to occur at the same time people are going to voting booths to “cancel” another Texas bumpkin… George Bush.
I always had this “feeling” that the people over at Fox were incredibly right wing, but it’s nice to know they even have a sense of humor.
No it’s My Avatar… No Pictures
This was article that I was writing for Flywire.org, but never got around to posting.
Here at Flywire.Org we take your comments and suggestions quite seriously, but this one comment received on a article about “How to Hack Lively”; was so hilarious it deserves its own article. Lately I’ve been so busy I’ve been slacking on my duties as editor and admin for a couple of weeks, but for this hilarious comment I’m going to make some time so I can comment on it.

Family Abandons 9 Children under “Safe Haven” Law
Governor of Nebraska Dave Heineman said he couldn’t wait any longer to address what’s been called a state embarrassment. The “embarrassment” centers around Nebraska’s loosely worded “Safe Haven” law, which in a few months has resulted parents abandoning nearly 2 dozen children as old as 17 years old. The governor had planned to wait till the next regular session in January. The Governor said Wednesday that:
"We’ve had five in the last eight days,"
"We all hoped this wouldn’t happen."
Of course it’s not like they will be doing anything about this now since the special session that they are holding early doesn’t start until November 14th. They want to change the law so it will protect the infants for which it was intended for.
"This law needs to be changed to reflect its original intent", said the Governer
Normally “Safe Haven” laws are so parents can drop off children that they can’t take care. It’s basically "No Questions Asked” as the phrase goes, and the parents can’t be prosecuted. Normally most states limit the time to 3 days, but for Nebraska there was no such limitation; parents from other states having been driving to Nebraska so they can take advantage of this loophole including Iowa, Michigan, and Georgia. The majority of the children are teenagers, with one child younger than 6, and not a single baby.

Cheaper Ingredients Found in Hot Dog Buns
With tough economic times it’s not surprising that companies are looking for ways to increase profits on their products. One North Carolina man opened a bag of hot dog buns only to find mouse parts baked inside. These are some of my favorite quotes:
"that’s our little friend right there. And that clearly is a mouse."
"I see the little ears. Clearly that’s a tail. I don’t know what that is, part of his leg or something, but that mouse is baked in there."
"that’s certainly noticeable. I mean, somebody should have seen that. It got put into a bag."
Then when the guy called “Arnold Bread” they told him not to call the Concord store where he bought them.
"she told me, ‘ah no, you don’t need to call BJ’s, just send it back to us.’"
